πŸ‘‹ morning, from what I understand Spryker never updates the stock level, and depends on the ERP

    saying that, the ERP probably won't have processed the order on the next stock import event

    so decrementing the stock manually probably won't help consistently

  • I am not sure about what @UKU1E0ENB said. Maybe it was meant to be like that, but that also couples very distant parts of the system

  • if the next stock update returns with less than i have reserved, which of the items do i un-reserve then?

  • maybe we find some documentation about that?

    the only safe thing to do would be to remove the reserved flag once the ERP has assigned the stock and has sent the stock update accounting for that order

    i'm thinking the least bad thing would be to unreserve on shipment confirmed (in our case)

    not sure i see the downside of simply decrementing the stock though once the order has been placed / exported

    This really depends on what kind of data you get from the WMS. In some cases you get only deltas and need to add/subtract by yourself. In this case it would totally wrong to manipulate the stock in other places.

    When you get absolute numbers then it’s not dangerous to manipulate spy_stock. However this is not how it was designed.

    spy_stock mirrors the real inventory which exists in the warehouse.

    um um, yes we have absolutes

    but manyually modifying the stock doesn't really make sense anyway - as it might be erronously overwritten by the ERP stock import before it's processed the order

    True that’s a good reason to avoid changes there

    guess it boils down to being optimistic or pessimistic

    Just keep the reservation until you get the next stock sync.

    Indeed. And you should be too pessimistic

  • anyone of you care to give a brief 20 mins talk about that in the not too distant future? πŸ™‚

    What you mean with brief? Talk about business problems with current implementation?

  • how about talking about solutions and approaches?

  • tipps, tricks

  • alternatives?
